KELOWNA, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ:LEXX)(NASDAQ:LEXXW) (the "Company" or "Lexaria"), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is pleased to announce that its Contract Research Organization ("CRO") has completed the important study milestone known as last patent last visit ("LPLV") in Lexaria's Phase 1b glucagon-like peptide-1 ("GLP-1") study in Australia, GLP-1-H24-4 (the "Study").

"We are delighted that this important milestone has been achieved on schedule, concluding all patient dosing and clinical testing in our Study," said John Docherty, Lexaria's President and CSO. "Study work continues with full sample and data analyses currently underway in order to reach our late 2025 final reporting objective."

The Study CRO is actively managing the laboratory analysis phase of the work, where thousands of samples collected during the Study are being carefully processed, analysed, and recorded into an extensive database recording system. Lexaria is blinded to that data until the database work has been completed.

Lexaria previously released partial 8-week positive interim results from the Study with encouraging results aligned with its primary study endpoint. These interim results were tracking very nicely from a safety and tolerability perspective relative to the Rybelsus® control arm of the Study; most notably in terms of reductions in the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse events.

About The Study
The Study was conducted with 24-25 overweight, obese, pre- or type 2 diabetic patients in each of the 5 Study Arms (N=126), of which 4 arms evaluated various DehydraTECH formulations with the 5^th being the Study control arm. All doses were administered daily by oral tablet or capsule - there were no drug injections involved in this Study as Lexaria is promoting a change in the standard of care, moving away from injections and instead embracing oral DehydraTECH delivery.

Arm 1 of the Study utilized a proprietary, patented DehydraTECH-CBD formulation. As a reminder, Lexaria has earlier received a Food and Drug Administration no-objection letter to proceed with a separately devised Phase 1b human clinical study to examine the utility of DehydraTECH-CBD in the pursuit of hypertension relief.

Arms 2 and 3 of the Study used DehydraTECH-processed pure semaglutide. Arm 2 examined DehydraTECH-semaglutide on a stand-alone basis, while Arm 3 examined DehydraTECH-semaglutide in combination with DehydraTECH-CBD. These arms were compared to the Study control arm (Study Arm 4) which used Rybelsus® tablets (semaglutide) that contains Novo Nordisk's® proprietary salcaprozate sodium ("SNAC") technology.

Study Arm 5 evaluated the performance of DehydraTECH-tirzepatide, pursuant to the positive findings previously achieved and released for Human Pilot Study #3 (GLP-1-H24-3).

In its first-ever GLP-1 study in humans reported in January 2024, Lexaria discovered that DehydraTECH processing of Rybelsus®-branded semaglutide, after a single dose, improved blood sugar control and reached higher levels of semaglutide measured in blood, than did Rybelsus® alone. Also, in rodent study work reported in October 2024, Lexaria was pleased to see comparable performance of DehydraTECH-semaglutide without SNAC to DehydraTECH-processed Rybelsus® formulations including SNAC; which Lexaria previously reported may be due to DehydraTECH preserving similar molecular properties in the gut for ingested semaglutide which has been shown to be integral to SNAC-enabled semaglutide gut absorption.

Lexaria has several important objectives for this Study:

• Is DehydraTECH processed CBD, semaglutide, and/or tirzepatide safe over the 12-week Study duration in the Study population?

• Does DehydraTECH-(pure) semaglutide match or outperform Rybelsus®-semaglutide with its proprietary SNAC technology in measures of blood sugar control, weight loss, and/or reduced side-effects?

• Does DehydraTECH processing enhance real world outcomes such as weight loss, blood sugar control and/or reduction of side-effects over the Study duration?

• Does DehydraTECH processing of pure semaglutide evidence reduced side effects during daily dosing for 12 weeks, as DehydraTECH processing of Rybelsus® seemed to achieve in a prior human study utilizing one single daily dose?

Lexaria expects to release the final results of the Study when available, which is currently projected to be during the fourth quarter of 2025.

Lexaria highlights DehydraTECH's adverse events improvement opportunity

KELOWNA, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (Nasdaq:LEXX)(Nasdaq:LEXXW) (the "Company" or "Lexaria"), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, provides the following glucagon-like peptide-1 ("GLP-1") and obesity industry update.

The market for obesity and diabetes control drugs such as GLP-1 is growing at faster rates than nearly anyone originally anticipated, with revenues now expected to exceed $150 billion by 2030. Today these markets are overwhelmingly dominated by Eli Lilly and Company® and Novo Nordisk®, but with compelling growth opportunities abounding, no less than 39 new GLP-1 drugs are in development from 34 different companies.

These tremendous growth opportunities in the GLP-1 sector have all of these companies racing to deliver improved products to the market. As reported earlier, perhaps the largest opportunity for product improvement is in the area of patient safety. The existing medications in the market today notoriously cause unwanted adverse events ("AEs"), more specifically gastrointestinal ("GI") AEs (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation).

To that end, Lexaria is working to position its DehydraTECH drug delivery technology as not only an improved drug absorption/performance enhancer, but also as a vital enabler of reducing side effects of various GLP-1 drugs. The following table summarizes the dramatic improvements in GI AEs that Lexaria has realized when testing all three (semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide) of the major GLP-1 drugs on the market today with its DehydraTECH ("DHT") technology in an oral format:

^{* oral dosing was performed after overnight fasting in all instances, except for GLP-1-H24-2 where fed pre-dosing conditions were applied.
** partial/8-week results from 12-week study}

Meanwhile, pharmaceutical companies large and small are jockeying for position in what has effectively become a technological arms race. On May 14^th Novo Nordisk® announced that it had struck a collaboration and licensing deal with Septerna™ to develop molecules of use in the obesity and type 2 diabetes sectors, in return for up front and milestone payments of up to $2.2 billion.

On March 12^th Roche® announced it had acquired rights to obesity drug petrelintide from Zealand Pharma A/S® for up to $5.3 billion in payments. The Roche transaction allows them to potentially gain more rapid access to the market sector than may have been possible from its own obesity drug, CT-388 which is still undergoing development and assessment.

Regeneron® launched itself into the GLP-1 arms race with its licensing and milestone deal announced June 2^nd, worth up to $1.93 billion to acquire rights to China's Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group's™ HS-20094 which is a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist.

On April 15^th, Merck® announced a licensing deal worth up to $493 million for limited rights to Cyprumed's™ oral peptide drug delivery technology. What is particularly notable is that these rights are non-exclusive, with additional payments required if Merck® was to exercise their option for exclusive rights.

With an extensive wholly-owned patent portfolio protecting DehydraTECH worldwide, Lexaria continues to take steps to unlock the value of its robust drug delivery platform. As the diabetes control and weight-loss industries continue to focus on GLP-1 and even more advanced drug generations for these and other therapeutic indications, Lexaria remains confident that DehydraTECH is valid for utilization with the right commercial partner(s).
